I am trying to test an Angular Single Page application with protractor. I need to run the login script first. Only then I can move to other routes since there is a check for token in localStorage on route change.
Is this testing approach correct?. In that case I need to run the login script first. Does protractor allows to control the spec file order.
Or should I run the each script independently by hardcoding the token in localStorage (Should I do login api call independently before each test).
My login script contains the following
it('Login with wrong email', function() {
})
it('Login with correct email', function() {
})
So after running the Login with correct mail I will get the accessToken which will get stored in localStorage and I can continue testing other routes. Is this the correct approach. If not how do I test a single application with login from end to end.
In protractor Style Guide it is mentioned as
Make your tests independent from each other
So should I use beforeAll, beforeEach to get the access token and store in localStorage before each test. In that case please explain me how to do it.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
